Resumo(s)
As ações humanas estão a conduzir à 6ª extinção em massa do planeta. A presente dissertação tem como preocupação este facto, em particular, a desconexão do ser humano em relação à natureza.
Procura-se compreender como pode o Design de Interação atuar, através de uma atividade projetual com preocupações sustentáveis, para promover a diferença junto dos utilizadores.
Explora-se a utilização de metodologias que têm por base princípios biocentristas e pós-humanistas e o modo como a tecnologia pode servir soluções mais sustentáveis.
Através da revisão da literatura, da observação indireta, de estudos de caso, procura-se, numa primeira instância, aprofundar o conhecimento sobre o tema.
Com base neste conhecimento desenvolveu-se um questionário e aplicou-se a 52 participantes. O questionário focou-se em práticas profissionais sustentáveis e, simultaneamente, levantou melhorias no human-centered design. O resultado permitiu gerar insights e referências para o desenvolvimento de novas heurísticas que auxiliem os designers a integrar práticas sustentáveis nos seus projetos.
Propõe-se assim um novo conceito, “bio-centered” design. Este deve motivar a consciencialização da urgência de reverter a perda da biodiversidade e em restituir o equilíbrio do planeta, assim como, o entendimento do papel fundamental nesta causa do design. Os artefactos têm de ser projetados com base em práticas sustentáveis.
The actions of human beings are leading to the 6th mass extinction. This dissertation is concerned with the latter, and with the disconnection of human beings from nature. The aim is, to understand how Interaction Design can act, through a design activity that integrates sustainable concerns, promoting difference among users and thus helping to maintain biodiversity. It explores the use of methodologies that are based on biocentrist and post-humanist principles, as well as how technology can serve more sustainable solutions. Through literature review, indirect observation and case studies, the aim is, in the first instance, to deepen the knowledge on the subject. Based on the acquired knowledge, a questionnaire was carried out to 52 participants. The questionnaire focused on sustainable professional practices and, simultaneously, raised improvements to human-centered design. This allowed to generate insights and references for the development of new heuristics for the Interaction Design process to integrate sustainable practices. Thus, proposing a new concept, “bio-centered” design, should motivate awareness of the urgency of reversing the loss of biodiversity and restoring the planet’s balance, as well as the understanding that design has a fundamental role in this cause. The artefacts must be designed based on sustainable practices.
